Traitor!
I designed a mechanic a while back called Traitor. The idea was to work similar to lieutenant, except the exact opposite. For those who don't know, Lieutenant is an effect that takes effect while a commander is in play. So Traitor occurs when the commander is not in play.
The challenge is this: Create a card that utilizes Traitor. But it doesn't have to be my exact definition. If you feel the ability needs wiggle room or tighter trigger restrictions, then feel free to experiment.
Examples: http://mtgcardsmith.com/user/Lujikul/sets/9181
Prizes(face it, this is what you were looking for):
First: Three cards favorites.
Second: Two card favorites.
Third: A card favorite.
The above, as well as honorable mentions, will have their entry card favorites as well.
(And for those wondering, I am still judging the paradox contest. It's surprising how long debates over prowess stacks can go.)

And some interesting flavor between two polar opposite mechanics:

The cards do need to be viable in Commander, but they don't have to be playable only in Commander.

Basically, the first ability is easier to activate with the second: but is impossible to have them both triggered at the same time.
